Author(s): Ryan Lokkesmoe
Publisher: Bethany House Publishers
Price: $0.99       (Ends Oct 1)

You’re interested in leading a small group, but you’re a little afraid. What are you getting yourself into? How do you get started? Don’t worry–you’re not alone. Many small group leaders feel ill-equipped for the task of leading in spite of the many books, conferences, online resources, and church-based training opportunities that are available.

Other small group books tend to focus on the overall theory of the small group’s place in the life of the church rather than the day-to-day nuts and bolts. Small Groups Made Easy focuses on practical pointers, overcoming challenges, and how to lead discussions. Half the book is made up of short sample Bible studies and topical studies that include icebreaker questions, discussion questions about the text, (more…)

Discipled Leader

Author(s): Preston Poore
Publisher: Kregel Publications
Price: $2.99       (Oct 5-6)

“A must-read for every leader.”
–Dan T. Cathy, Chairman and CEO at Chick-fil-A, Inc.

Preston Poore has spent decades in corporate America. Despite all the excellent advice he was given for growing in leadership, there was something missing: a way to bring his Christian beliefs to bear in his professional life, not just his personal life. So Preston sought his own answer to how his faith could impact his management of hundreds of employees.

What he discovered was this: the first step wasn’t adjusting his leadership style. Instead, he needed to let God change him before he could effect real change in his workplace. And in order to model discipleship to his team, he needed to first be discipled by the Spirit. Here, (more…)

Secret Place of Thunder

Author(s): John Starke
Publisher: Zondervan
Price: $2.99       (Ends June 30)

Why do we feel like we are always performing? Where does this impulse come from?

As John Starke shows in The Secret Place of Thunder, our modern world has internalized the idea that the markers of having an admirable and successful life are primarily visible. It leads us to believe that a sense of self-worth and identity are metrics to be displayed. The performance of the self has become more important than the reality. We live as if the most important things about us are to be performed before others; that our deepest happiness will come from being who others think we ought to be.

But when Jesus says, “Do not practice your righteousness before others,” he is leading us to believe that the most important things about us are hidden. How does the Bible lead us to live primarily before God? How does Jesus lead us to wholeness?

Jesus teaches us to live, not for the eyes of others or even for ourselves, but in the secret place where our Father in heaven sees and rewards.
